Phuket Day 2

Went to another doctor today and got our second opinion. She said as long as David's not in pain and there continues to be no sign of infection, he should wait and see a doctor when we get back to the States. So that's what we're going to do. We kind of got the feeling that the first doctor was a bit financially motivated when giving his opinion, and when we returned to the motorbike rental place and let the owner know what the doctor recommended, her first response was "they'll overcharge you". That was part of our reason for getting a second opinion. David's not feeling much pain and didn't even need to wear his sling all day. He's been taking antibiotics and the doctor wants him to continue that for another week. As for our other scrapes and bruises, they're really putting a damper on our planned beach days. That's what you do in Phuket, lounge on the beach and watersports! Doctor says we need to keep cool, as bacteria grow in the heat. She also suggested only getting in the water in the early morning or late evening, when the water's a bit cooler, and even then it should only be for a short time and right after we need to shower and disinfect. ::sigh:: Hopefully our immune systems are hard at work, we heal quickly, and we have a few beachy days before we head home. Until then I guess we'll just eat and drink all day! Haha
